Chapter 16: baronial domain

"You can choose. As long as you are not banned and you are not too close to Silvermoon City, it shouldn't be a big problem." Cirvanas said.

After looking at the map for a long time, Habayashi Xueying pointed to the westernmost island. He remembered this place, later the former base of the night elves entering Quel'Thalas, where they could build a dock.

"I want it here," he said.

"Sharantis Island?" Cirvanas shook his head and said, "Listen to me, that place is not good, so choose another one."

Sharantis Island was indeed not sealed off. But there are no residents there now, and there are many murlocs occupying it. The closest to the land from there is Golden Mist Village, but, even if it is the west coast of Golden Mist Village, facing Sharantis Island across the sea, it is useless, there are many murlocs on both sides, and they often come to harass Villagers of Jinwu Village. There are no elves living on Sharantis Island.

Yubayashi Xueying also shook his head and said, "I still think this place is pretty big."

"Big?" Cirvanas sneered, "It's pretty big, but do you know why such a big place hasn't been allocated yet? It's because there are too many murlocs. It's not so much a kingdom's territory. It is said to be the territory of the murlocs. And there are no residents. How will you pay taxes to the king, and how will you organize your army to go to war when it is time to go to war?"

It's not very far from the Windrunner's Tower, so Cirvanas naturally knows about it. Taking it there is not much different from opening up territories. Besides, that area is indeed large compared to the title of baron, but it is still too small for those with higher titles.

"I still have to pay taxes?" Habayashi Xueying called. He can understand sending troops, but paying taxes makes him feel embarrassed.

"Of course pay taxes! Do you think it's so easy to be a lord? You have a title and a fief, you are a lord. Although you are a small lord, you must abide by the laws and obligations of the kingdom. That's why I said that the place is not good. I See you choose another place." Cirvanas persuaded.

"No, I still think it's better there!" Habayashi Xueying said.

"Well, if you can fight it and hold it, you will be given all of Sharantis Island. The Windrunner family still has this ability. I guess those councilors will still clap their hands and celebrate." Silva Nas said, "But can you tell me why you chose that place?"

"What's wrong there? It's not far from the land and it's big," Yubayashi Xueying said. The only trouble is the murloc. By the way, their combat effectiveness should not be high. "

"It's not that high, otherwise why would Golden Mist Village be built near the coast? It's just very annoying. If they can't beat them, they all run into the sea and can't catch them. They will come out to make trouble after we leave." Hill Vanas said.

"There is a problem! If the kingdom entrusts me with land, then I can't go there alone, and I have to pay taxes. In that case, I might as well not have it." Habayashi Xueying said.

"Don't worry about this. Since the kingdom granted you a fief, it will definitely give you a loan, but you will have to repay the loan later, and you can form a personal guard team of less than 50 people to go to the territory." Hope Alvanas said.

Generally speaking, for the selection of the pro-guards, you can choose those who are willing to go with you from among the civilians, or you can go to the recruiting office for recruits who enlisted in the army that year. As long as others are willing to follow you, there is basically no problem. It’s just that for some civilians who have a lord, if the lord is unwilling to let people go, there is nothing they can do. After all, it is related to the lord’s tax. There is no problem with recruits. Once you become a soldier, you are a member of the kingdom. The lord has no right to stop him. Unless you poach people from other lord's guards, then there will be trouble.

"Your situation is quite special. Maybe you can form a guard team of less than 100 people to go with you. For example, the recruits from the team you brought can go with you, as long as they are willing." Cirvanas said.

She is quite confident in the abilities of the Windrunner family.

100 people are really not many! He sighed with Lin Xueying, "How come there are so few?"

"You can be satisfied. If it weren't for the special place, I would give you 50 people at most." Cirvanas said: "100 people is already a squadron size, is it too small? All other barons have a squad size of 50 people." , do you understand? The 100 people I told you is actually my guess, whether it can form a squadron size, I am not sure yet. If I can help, I will try my best to help you."

"I know what you said, but even if there are 100 people and no residents, how do you collect taxes? How do you repay the loan." Habayashi Xueying was distressed again.

"Why don't I tell you to choose another place? It would be nice if you choose a place with people, if there are fewer people, it's better than nothing." Cirvanas said angrily: "There is no one, you can only Go find those civilians who don't want to live in the lord's territory, for example, some civilians who hunt in the mountains for a living, but you can't use force, otherwise you will break the law."

"It's so difficult, I'm so dizzy. Being a lord is more tiring than being a commoner." Habayashi Xueying said.

"What do you think?" Cirvanas said with a blank look at him.

"Then I will build a prison there, can the king lock up the prisoners for me, and pay me for maintenance and management?" Habayashi Xueying complained discouragedly.

"Prison?" Cirvanas suddenly had the idea of ​​a magic experiment. She was still worrying about the secret location, but when she heard Habayashi Xueying's reminder, she said happily, isn't this the best place for the experiment?

After all, this experiment is an experiment that destroys humanity, and it is completely forbidden by law. Once it is leaked, it will face enormous pressure, so it can only be done in secret, and it may take several years to get a deeper understanding of the final result of the magic addiction, and it will be more cruel in the end, so the place of implementation has become the most difficult The question of choice.

"I have an idea, let's see how it goes..." Cirvanas said mysteriously.

The two discussed for a long time about the difficulties and problems of magic addiction.

Suddenly Habayashi Xueying said: "Do you think the group of arcane mages in Catherine College will be interested in this experiment?"

"Catherine Academy of Magic? You mean..." Cirvanas' eyes lit up.

"Yes, Catherine School of Magic. Hehe, it will allow you and the Windrunner family to completely distance themselves from each other, and also let you clearly know the results of the experiment. Once it is leaked, there will be others who will help take the blame and spend other people's money to complete their own affairs. Besides, I think it may cost a lot of money to build this experiment place. This is a matter of killing two birds with one stone, not killing three birds with one stone." Habayashi Xueying laughed.

"We have to think of a way. To lure those research freaks into the bait, they have a lot of research funding every year..." Cirvanas' eyeballs rolled around.

So the two discussed the conspiracy of the Catherine Academy of Magic in full swing. From time to time, one of them let out a sinister laugh, which was creepy.

"If this matter becomes the loan for the construction early next year, you won't have to move a copper coin. That's a lot of money, and if the experiment is carried out for 5 years, you won't have to worry about paying taxes for at least 10 years. Sand Lantis Island is really a good place!" Cirvanas clapped his hands and laughed, "If it wasn't for the fear of damaging the family's reputation, I would want to claim that territory myself. UU Reading I also Didn't get the fief."

"That depends on how strong your Windrunner family is, whether you can take that Sarantis Island and give it to me!" said Habayashi Xueying.

"Don't worry! If our family raises this issue in the council, it shouldn't be a big problem. The council will always give us this face. I think they will think that our Windrunner family is embarrassing you. Or they want you to Bad luck." Sylvanas said with a smile.

"Haha, if that's the case, should we work together to perform a play, a play about the origin of the conflict?" Habayashi Xueying joked.

"Acting?" Cirvanas rolled her eyes, and she didn't know what she thought of: "Okay! You have a good idea! I think I will choose a day when my sister comes home, and then I will take you to my house. So you..." She whispered to Habayashi Blood Eagle.

"No way! Wouldn't my reputation be completely ruined? I'll be hunted down by your sister. If I can't beat her, I'll die!" Habayashi Xueying screamed, shaking his head desperately to refuse.

This black-bellied sister is indeed not an ordinary black-bellied lady. In order to achieve the best effect, it was actually necessary to drug him and her sister and make him a bully.

"What are you afraid of? Being so timid, it's my sister who suffers!" Cirvanas said contemptuously.

"Of course you are not afraid, your sister will not kill you but will kill me without hesitation!" Yubayashi Xueying still shook his head

Although a beauty is good, her life is more important, but don't die under the natural disaster of the undead, but was crushed by the great hero Aurelia Windrunner early on, and there is no place to appeal for grievances.

"Of course there will be some danger. If you don't make a lot of noise, how can people believe it? How could those old people in the family force you into that Sarantis Island?" Cirvanas said as a matter of course.
